OK. I hope you're ready for this. Go to your hardware store. In the glue department is some metalized epoxy that is two solid sticks that you break off equal amounts and mix it together. Use this to fix the crack. Now comes the tricky part. This crack will continue to spread. Heating, cooling, vibration, will all work against you. You GOT to go to the very base of the crack, where good metal starts, and drill a small hole. This will stop the crack from spreading further (hopefully). Keep the shop vac sucking away filings as you drill. You don't want them getting into your engine. Now fill in the crack with your mixture. Use a putty knife and work it in very well. Let cure al least 24 hours. If you're lucky it will hold forever. If not, it cost you a couple of bucks.

If you do it yourself the alternator will cost around $200.00 and 2 days labor. My son just did mine and it was horrible. The alternator sits on the passenger side firewall behind the engine. Dealerships will charge anything from $700 and up to do it, most of that cost will be the labor. Good Luck
